Shear wave velocity characteristics of Nelson-Tasman regional deposits

Shear wave velocity characteristics of Nelson-Tasman regional deposits

ABSTRACT This paper presents proposed shear wave velocity-depth relationships for six prominent geological formations from the Nelson-Tasman area. Shear wave velocity profiles were developed for a selection of sites across the Nelson-Tasman Region using a combination of active source and passive source surface wave testing…

Liquefaction exposure and impacts across New Zealand State Highways

Liquefaction exposure and impacts across New Zealand State Highways

ABSTRACT New Zealand State Highways are exposed to a range of natural hazards including earthquake triggered liquefaction and lateral spreading. Using a recently developed geospatial model, a framework to assess the liquefaction risk across the State Highway network was proposed, combining liquefaction probability, recurrence and…
